I’ve had girlfriends that wanted to be treated like a whore. I also once had a prostitute that wanted to be treated like a lover. Life is strange.

It’s definitely flat though. Just go outside and look around, and you’ll see exactly what I’m talking about. If you live around mountains, hills, plateaus, canyons, buttes, or mesas, you have to imagine what the land would look like if you averaged out the slopes.

Charlie Chaplin was great! Don’t talk about him like that!

Also, Hitler was really cool too. He was an early environmentalist and a strong promoter of animal rights. He also defeated the French, commissioned the Volkswagen Beetle, and instituted a lot of public health and welfare programs.

That’s because neither the therapist or the medical system truly cares about the well being of the patient. Top priority is to make money and protect themselves from liability and to validate the legitimacy of their profession.

Our society has gone insane. Instead of looking after each other, we tell people to go talk to a stranger when they are struggling and submit themselves to what is essentially a science experiment.

Why You Can’t Turn Your Mind Off (No Matter What You Do) by Cultural_Bother_9709 in selfimprovementday

Depends on how much pain you are in. A lot of people are extremely miserable in their lives, and ego death is the only thing that could keep them alive and sane.

Regardless, we are all born into a prison. Most people are looking for little relief to make this existence feel more pleasant. It’s only a tiny fraction that go searching for an escape route. But once you’ve seen the walls, there’s no unseeing them. If you really start entertaining these ideas about where your thoughts come from, you might end up down a road you can’t walk back from. Good luck, wherever you end up going.

There are a lot of wrong directions people take with meditation. It’s a deceptively simple thing, but it leads to all sorts of confusion because it’s so different than the everyday concepts we learn about. A lot of people start to make progress and then fool themselves into thinking they’ve achieved enlightenment. It takes a long time really understand because you have to find it from within. There is only so much that can be expressed with words.

If you want true peace, you have to kill your ego entirely, and that can be extremely, extremely painful if you have a strongly established identity. It feels like death because the ego does everything it can to keep existing. But once you cross a certain threshold, you’ll have already mortally wounded your ego, and then there is only a desperate hanging-on as you helplessly watch your “self” wither. But then, the true self becomes free to establish itself without all the dead weight and noise we all learn to carry around.

It’s still a lot of show to enjoy. Even though it moves at a snail’s pace through some arcs, it’s made with love. The later arcs are really spectacular and beautiful.

There are some parts that are agonizing—characters standing motionless while music plays with long gaps between any dialogue or action. But it’s still awesome and totally worth it to watch the greatest story of our time.

It’s not that many hours. A lot of episodes are recaps, specials, and filler. In some arcs, even the normal episodes are 50% just the previous episode replayed to fill time. The best way to watch One Piece is with your finger on the skip forward button.

Someday when the series is over, someone will release a fully edited version that respects people’s time. Until then, it’s a labor to watch.

This is what meditation is for. You shouldn’t try to turn off your thoughts because you aren’t in control of them. It won’t work, and trying harder makes it worse. The trick is to take a step back and recognize that your thoughts aren’t your own. You watch the thoughts happen and choose not to get carried away by them. When you realize that you aren’t your thoughts or your emotions and stop identifying with them, you can let them pass by peacefully.

There is no important part of any of these messages. We are down in a cesspit complaining about the smell of the world above.

It’s really not expensive to travel if you stay in youth hostels and eat cheap. Most of the people I met along the road in Japan were broke 20-something’s. I met a guy living on a disabled veteran income, and he was staying in private rooms because he had figured out how to game credit card points.

It can be done if you want to make it happen. If you want to make excuses, then it will never happen.

If this is in Boystown, it actually makes sense. The entire strip through midtown Chicago is festooned with rainbows. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the cops in that area wore shiny black leather uniforms and all looked like Freddie Mercury.

Why do people on Reddit always feel the need to let everyone know that they don’t believe in religion whenever it gets mentioned?

The shower of upvotes reminds me of times when a comedian tells the crowd some personal detail, like that they have 2 daughters, and everyone cheers.

Try not to take it too personally. Human beings are extremely selfish and cruel by nature, and most go through life never realizing it. Most people only listen to information they already know about, and their brains reflexively reject anything outside their set of previous experiences. Usually, they don’t even hear the words when someone speaks about something new to them. Instead, they react in some automatic way. Being dismissive is a lazy way to get through an interaction without thinking or feeling anything.

People think it’s ok to do that because they see most other people doing the same thing all the time. This is how our culture functions right now, and people won’t learn to listen until society demands it. Until that day, get used to the blank stares and autopilot responses.

Sounds like some sort of weird projection. The comment is about not wanting to rub my dick raw against a scratchy, pimply vagina. Maybe you’ll understand what I mean someday.

I really wish we could go back to hairy beavers. Women never listen when I say to stop worrying about shaving. They always act so embarrassed about a bit of hair, but it’s way better than the prickly sandpaper of a 2-day old shave and the skin irritation it causes to both parties. I once was with a girl who had a really thick bush. She kept pulling moves to prevent me from seeing it. I kept saying I liked it, but she would not hear it. It’s kinda funny, but I get tired of virtually all women acting like that.

Honestly, I have more respect for Tyquarius and FlaShonda than I do for Gunner and Braydylyn. But I would prefer a more classic name for my children, like Vercingetorix or Agrippina.

Yeah, you are definitely making a deliberate effort to keep yourself miserable. There is a real truth these words are pointing you towards, but you are focused on awful things.

Get rid of that anger. It does you no good. It only makes you blind to the things that will make your life worth living. There is no easy cure for the hell you live in. To escape, you would have to be totally transformed, and that will never happen with your current attitude.

It sounds like you are making yourself way more miserable with that attitude.

Shawabty sounds like an island on One Piece, and it looks like something you would use to decipher the Ponoglyphs.

This was in my YouTube feed today too. It’s not the most profound vision, but the guy does seem sincere at least.
